It was my impression that most rumours pointed towards csm not getting any codex love. With only a possible tzeentch themed release and the whole chaos theme for Christmas getting my hopes up.
The collection is only a digital one, but it still seems unlikely to me that they would do that when a new dex is on the horizon. They even added khorne daemonkin.
Not exactly expecting any more chaos love over the next few days either as the Christmas craze cools off. If it wasn't for the fact that they aren't going to offer any csm starting bundles (as far as I can tell from the rumours), I would say that the BL collection pretty much seals the deal on not getting anything. If there ever was a time to release dex, it would have been at the end of the chaos themed month culminating into Christmas no?

Reason why Black Library doesn't sell the Codex for Chaos Space marines is there is no digital version of it except for the iPad version.

That is why it's not included in the bundle. It doesn't exists.

Hmm, I don't follow the digital scene much. I would imagine the physical codex release would bring with it the digital counterpart for both iPad/phone and other mobile platforms shortly after, no? At least with the more recent releases like say mechanicus. or the newer knight "codex". Because in that case it would make little sense to release the collection now. I for one am not going to buy it as is, but if it came along with a new dex I would just go ahead and buy it for the dataslates which I don't actually own atm. Like this I see no reason to get it once the codex hits. ( it will have to come eventually lol....right? XD)
